If Saudis fight like Iraqis, then Saudi Arabia may have a big problem.

Nah, the Saudis enjoy their western lifestyle (when off campus) too much to let the isis idiots win, plus they are armed to the teeth and well trained.

BTW, I attended a private showing of an old classic movie (Harold and Maude) at a local MeetUp group last weekend, and met a very young Saudi guy there, maybe 18-20. He’s at a local uni on a one-year arts scholarship to study movie directing. A polite, good-natured young man with at least a half-western mindset.

Saudi has a lot of citizens like this one. They are not going to let their country go down to mediaeval isis creeps. I look forward to getting to know him at these events during his year here, hope to get further insights and perhaps even influence his thinking. In my jeans, sipping a glass of champagne and petting a gorgeous collie, I was so incredibly different from his grandma back in the kingdom. LOL.
